The first section shows which alliance your character is in. Next to that it states your character name, race and class. In the example shown below, one can see the Wood Elf Nightblade, Argorn Nightsky from The Ebonheart Pact.

The second section shows some background information.

Title:

The Title shows your titles of honour which you earn by completing quests for the fighters guild, mages guild, by completing the main story and by participating in the Alliance war. The title you select will show beneath your name for other players to admire.

Alliance Rank

The Alliance Rank show your rank in the alliance war. You can level this rank up by earning Alliance Points. Which are earned by participating in the Alliance war and questing in Cyrodiil.

Bounty

When you misbehave and get caught, you will get a bounty on your head. Your bounty is shown in gold.

The third section of the character sheet, shows your Attribution points, put into three resources: Magicka, Health and Stamina. Everytime you level up, you earn an Attribution point. This Attribution point can be used to increase the amount of resources you have. Spreading Attribution points is not recommended, unless you want to create a jack-of-all-trades character. The higher the amount of resources you have, the more you can use abilities which deplete these resources. This is different from other MMO's, which often only work with countdown timers.

In the example shown below, the player chose to go with a stamina build which uses a lot of stamina. Therefore this player put most of their Attribute points into this pool. Allowing them to use more stamina depleting abilities in a sequence.

The fourth section of the character sheet shows a wide range of statistics of your character. It shows the Maximum amount of resources you have for each (Magicka, Health and Stamina). But also how quickly these resources recover. In the example above, the character recovers 244 Magicka every 2 seconds. This 2 second rule accounts for all resources.

This section also shows your Damage, Critical chance and Resistance from damage. Spell and Weapon Damage show you how much damage you will do with your abilities and weapons/staffs.

Spell and Weapon Critical have a base of 10%. This means that every hit has a 10% chance of dealing a critical hit. Critical hits do +50% increased damage or healing.

Spell and Physical Resistance show how much damage is absorbed by your character while taking damage.

The fifth section of the character sheet shows your character's Riding Skill. These are upgraded by visiting a stablemaster or by purchasing upgrades for real money in the Crown StoreFrom left to right you will find four icons:

Speed

This shows how much faster your mounts will be in percentages and allows for quicker traveling

Stamina

This shows the amount of stamina your mounts will have in percentages and allows for longer sprinting

Carrying capacity

Hourglass

This shows the amount of slots your bag space will increase by having a mount.

After upgrading your mount at a stablemaster, an hourglass will show up. Informing you that an upgrade recently has been applied and how long it will take before you can upgrade your mount again.

The last section will show you all active effects affecting your character stats both negatively and positivelyThese include effects from:- Potions- Poisons- Eaten alchemy ingredients- Food items- Drinks items- Enchanted items- Mundus Stones- Being a Vampire/Werewolf
